On My Mind

Chapter 11

Thursday and Friday went by relatively fast. Mr. Marks was actually quite nice and platonic, not crossing the line between business and pleasure. She hung out with Dave for a bit over the two days but nothing serious. Today was Saturday and John and Dave were taking Amber to a house show. WWE was in town and the boys wanted to catch up with their friends and visit and had surprisingly invited her. She was actually kind of excited. She had watched Raw and Smackdown this week, after John had introduced her to the sport, and had gotten quite into it and was looking forward to meeting some of the wrestlers. At the moment, she was standing with her towel wrapped around her searching through her closet frustrated. She had no idea what to wear. She had already decided it was definitely casual, but she had so many casual clothes, it was hard to narrow down what exactly to wear. Her phone rang and she groaned in frustration. She made her way into the kitchen, where she left her purse and started another search for her phone. She finally found it and flipped it open violently before answering.

"Yes?"

"Whoa. Is this a bad time?" Dave said on the other line. Amber felt herself soften and smiled slightly.

"Sorry. I can't find anything to wear." She explained softly.

"Is that all? I'm sure you'll look great in anything." He said letting himself smile.

"I wish that was the case." She said sarcastically.

"Well anyways, John wanted me to call you and remind you that we're leaving in a half hour." He said.

"Well then I better get off the phone cause it will be a miracle if I'm ready by then." She said already making her way back to her room.

"You didn't let me finish," He started. "John said we'd leave in a half hour but knowing him like I do, it'll probably be forty-five minutes. He spends a lot of time in front of the mirror." Amber laughed.

"Thank you, but I still think I'm going to cut it close." She said staring into her closet. Dave let out a small, deep laugh.

"Alright, in that case, I guess I'll let you go." He said before they exchanged goodbyes and hung up. Amber gave up on her closet at the moment and walked into the bathroom. She dried her hair and then straightened it. She applied light, minimum make up and then walked back to her closet for the hard part of getting ready. After much consideration, she finally decided on an outfit. She wore a vintage black and white Aerosmith concert tee with dark wash skinny jeans. She pulled on black knee high leather high heeled boots over her jeans just as the door bell rang. She walked to the door and smiled when she saw Dave.

"I'm almost ready. Give me thirty seconds." She said and walked back into her room, pulling on a black leather jacket. "Where's John?" She called to him as she walked to the kitchen, where she grabbed her purse.

"In the truck." Dave said and followed her out the door. "You look good."

"Why thank you, so do you." She said gesturing to his outfit which consisted of jeans and a Batista shirt.

"Thanks." He said as they approached the truck. Dave opened the door for her and helped her in before climbing in after her; Amber sat between the two boys

"Hey John." She said turning to him with a smile.

"Its about damn time." John replied with a smirk.

"It takes time to look this good." She responded, knowing he was joking.


They made it to the arena in record time, due to John's speeding.

"Remind me never to ride with you again." Amber said hopping from the truck with as much gracefulness as she could.

"You get used to it." Dave said with a shrug, closing the door behind her. They made their way up to the guards at the back door and walked through.

"I'll catch up with you guys later. I have to go see Vince for a minute." Dave said waving to them as he left. She was a little bummed to see him go so fast but she pushed it aside and thought about where she was. She was about to meet many wrestlers and she was excited. John turned to her and threw an arm over her shoulders in a very sibling friendly gesture.

"So what do you want to see first?" He asked as they started walking forward.

"Whatever." Was all she could manage to say. She looked around and was overwhelmed with everything that was going on around her. People were rushing about getting ready for the show.

"Well, how about I take you to meet a few of my friends." He suggested and she simply nodded. Her eyes widened as they approached a big group of maybe four or five guys. As they got closer, she counted and came up with four guys, all familiar but she couldn't really place their names with their faces.

"Hey! Look who it is." Someone yelled as he saw John. The person who yelled it was tall with brown hair and blue eyes.

"Hey guys." John said, taking his arm from around her shoulders to hug his friends manly. "Good to see you."

"We didn't think you'd show today." Another person said. He was also tall, quite muscular and had a bit of facial hair.

"Of course I showed." John said amazed that they thought he'd miss this.

"Who's your friend?" One of his friends asked, who was actually next to Amber, and smiled down at her.

"Oh! Sorry. This is my new neighbor and friend Amber. Amber these are the guys." He said gesturing to the group. The one closest to her stepped closer and put out his hand.

"Nice to meet you Amber; I'm Ken Kennedy." He said as she shook his hand and giggled as he kissed her knuckles

"Don't mind him," A cocky voice spoke up, making her jerk her head in his direction. Now this guy, she recognized. It was Edge and boy was he hot. "He flirts with anything with legs." He said stepping forward, pushing Ken out of the way. "I'm Adam."

"Pleasure to meet you." She said with a smile as she shook his hand.

"Oh no, the pleasure is all mine." Another voice spoke up. "Chris Mordetsky." He said introducing himself, also taking her hand.

"And last but certainly not least," The last one said stepping forward. "Randy Orton." He said and winked. She smiled and shook his hand.

"Nice to meet you all." She said softly, almost shyly.

"I'm gonna talk to these guys for a few, you might get bored. Why don't you go over there to the cafeteria. Get yourself something to eat or drink." He suggested with one hand on the small of her back, pointing to the cafeteria just a few feet away.

"How's the food?" She asked with her nose wrinkled. Its been her experience that cafeteria food sucked. The guys laughed.

"It's pretty good." John answered. "Go on." He said giving her a small, gentle push.

"I'm going, I'm going." She said looking back at him before making her way in. All the guys stared after her.

"Damn." Randy was the first to speak.

"Ditto." Adam said arching his back, still trying to see her from where he was standing.

"I know." John said.

"So are you two…"Chris asked unsure. John laughed and shook his head.

"No. She's too innocent for me. She's like a sister." He cleared up.

"Well, in that case." Randy said with a cocky smirk. He rubbed his hands together and made a move to go talk to Amber. John grabbed his shoulder, stopping him in his tracks. He turned around and looked at John waiting for some sort of explanation.

"Whoa there Sparky. Hold up." John said crossing his arms over his chest. "You know how Dave is staying at my place for a while?" He asked and all the guys nodded, wondering what Dave had to do with anything. "Well, they went on a date the other night. I think they might be interested in each other."

"Dave? Dave Bautista?" Adam asked putting a hand on John's shoulder. John nodded. "But he hasn't gone out with anyone since the divorce."

"I know. I was shocked." John said. They all stood there in silence for a bit before nodding in understanding. From this point on, she was off limits.
